Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 pound ground beef (80/20 recommended)
  • 1 pound ground turkey
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 1 green bell pepper, chopped
  • 2 (15 ounce) cans kidney beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 (15 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes, undrained
  • 1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce
  • 1 (4 ounce) can diced green chilies, undrained
  • 4 tablespoons chili powder
  • 2 teaspoons ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional, for heat)

Instructions

  1. Brown the ground beef and ground turkey in a skillet over medium heat. Drain off any excess fat.
  2. Place the browned meat into the basin of your slow cooker.
  3. Add the chopped onion, green bell pepper, rinsed beans, crushed tomatoes, tomato sauce, and diced green chilies to the slow cooker.
  4. Stir in the chili powder, cumin, oregano, salt, pepper, and cayenne pepper, if using. Mix all ingredients well.
  5. Cover the slow cooker and cook on LOW for 8 hours or on HIGH for 4 hours.
  6. Stir before serving. Offer your favorite toppings like shredded cheese or sour cream.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, you can brown the onion and pepper lightly before adding them to the slow cooker.
  • This recipe freezes well. Cool completely before portioning into freezer-safe containers.
  • If you prefer a thicker chili, remove the lid for the last 30 minutes of cooking time on HIGH.
